Oil Change FAQ
How often should I change my oil?
Most vehicles are happy with an oil change every 5,000–8,000 km, but it depends on your engine, oil type, and how you drive. If you’re not sure, swing by or bring your manual and we’ll give you a straight answer for your specific vehicle.
Do I need an appointment for an oil change?
Nope. Oil changes are first-come, first-served. If you want to call ahead to check how busy we are, that’s always welcome, but you don’t need a formal appointment.
How long does an oil change take?
Most oil changes are done in about 30–45 minutes once your vehicle is in the bay. If we spot anything that needs extra attention, we’ll talk to you before doing any extra work.
What kind of oil do I need — synthetic or conventional?
It depends on your vehicle, mileage, and how you use it. Some engines require synthetic, others are fine with conventional or a blend. We’ll check your manufacturer specs and explain your options in plain language so you can choose what makes sense.
Do you check anything else during an oil change?
Yes. Every oil change at FTP comes with a free multi-point inspection. We look at things like brakes, belts, hoses, fluids, and general safety items so you know what’s good and what might need attention down the road. No scare tactics, no upsell — just honest info.
